Backyard Summertime Nature in New Jersey.

There was a herd of over two dozen deer in my backyard this evening. Or why I am now dealing with Lyme disease. Lets Dance. Image taken with a Nikon D4 camera and 200 mm f/2 lens (ISO 800, 200 mm, f/2, 1/160 sec).

Backyard Summertime Nature in New Jersey.

Fawn with Spots — Got to Run. Image taken with a Nikon D700 and 28-300 mm lens (ISO 900, 300 mm, f/5.6, 1/60 sec). Raw image processed with Capture One Pro 6, Nik Define 2, and Photoshop CS5.

Unfortunately, these guys spread the deer ticks — which then spread Lyme’s disease. Been there, done that, don’t want to do that again.

Flying Across the United States: Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory From 35K Feet.

While flying from Denver, Colorado to Newark, New Jersey I saw the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory out my window. Sometimes it is amazing the images you can get out the window of a commercial jet at 35K feet.
